The military promised to give me a job related to my degree, proceeded to then not do that, then denied me a higher degree both in my assigned job field and in my educational background because I lacked the background for the former and the job didn't require the latter. And now I'm struggling to get back into my original background

I'm on Voyager and it's just a still image. It's been doing this for a couple weeks

About a decade ago there was a huge Chinese hack into one of the security clearance contractors, who then lost the contract, so the final remaining contractor has been playing catch up ever since.

I had a top secret clearance in my old job. The whole process usually takes less than 9 months and anything outside a year usually means there's something fishy with your background. It boggles my mind that members of Congress aren't required to have security clearances and waiving background checks is completely insane. They're clearly hiding a lot of nefarious and dodgy crap that would otherwise disqualify them from office

Looks like a Master Lock 141D, a 4-pin with loose tolerance. Picking the third or fourth pin with a little torque usually pops it. Sometimes you have to set two pins, but not very difficult. Shake, torque, rake, open

Awesome!

Yeah I've only read Solaris and Cyberiad and they're simply incredible

I read this book years ago and I'm about to do it again! Who knew science fiction could be so fun?

Wow I haven't thought about Saving Abel in a decade

I thought it was fine enough for scifi. What was the issue?

This is an incredibly important statement. You've perfectly summarized exactly how non-Harris voters felt. The opinions you share in here may or may not be true and the Lemmy population certainly doesn't like hearing it, but this was the thought process that brought trump to office.

Frankly, the way to save America is to attack corporations. Regulate, regulate, regulate, put money back in the hands of the voters. Whoever does this has the vote.
